Antony cried when remembering the difficulties at MU. |
In a conversation with TNT Sports Brazil , Antony could not hold back his tears as he recounted his terrible time at Manchester United. He admitted that he went through dark days, lost his inspiration to play football, even locked himself in his room and did not eat anything.
“I no longer felt joy in competing. I used to tell my brother: ‘I can’t take it anymore’. His words of encouragement were my last ray of hope during that period,” Antony recalled, choking up.
The 25-year-old said he did not even have the energy to play with his son and felt completely emotionally drained. “Only I know what I went through in that house, days without eating, without talking to anyone. I am lucky to have survived.”
The move to Real Betis has been a turning point in Antony's career. Under the guidance of coach Manuel Pellegrini, he has gradually regained his form and confidence. Up to now, Antony has scored 9 goals, had 5 assists and has become one of the most beloved players at Benito Villamarin. In addition, the player born in 2000 has also been called up to the national team by coach Carlo Ancelotti, preparing for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers next month.
Antony and his teammates are preparing for the UEFA Conference League final against Chelsea, where he has the chance to end the season with a trophy. However, his future at Manchester United remains in doubt. Real Betis are keen to keep Antony but cannot afford the £40m asking price that the Red Devils are demanding.
